DEMOCRAT calls for stopping Robert Mueller and draining the swamp, or public faith in government “justice” will be shattered forever

Special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation of President Donald J. Trump and members of his 2016 campaign has dragged on for a year with nothing to show in terms of its original stated intent: To find evidence of criminal or nefarious behavior that involved a foreign power — Russia.

As such, it’s time for Mueller to wrap it up or have it wrapped up for him, according to Mark Penn, a former pollster and adviser to President Bill Clinton from 1995-2000, a period of time that included Clinton’s impeachment trial.

Last Monday, in a column for The Hill, Penn — now manager of the Harris Poll — said that ending the investigation is the best way to save the republic and protect not only the integrity of national elections but the office of the presidency as well.

“The ‘deep state’ is in a deep state of desperation,” he writes. “With little time left before the Justice Department inspector general’s report becomes public, and with…Mueller having failed to bring down Donald Trump after a year of trying, they know a reckoning is coming.”

He writes that by now most rational Americans are well aware that the Obama Justice Department and FBI intentionally tanked Hillary Clinton’s email investigation though it was rather obvious she violated statutes governing the handling of classified information on multiple occasions — even to the point of breaking their own rules to clear the person they all believed would be the next president.

Penn also notes that, as evidenced by unhinged tweets from Obama’s CIA director, Jon Brennan, and leaked stories to The New York Times and Washington Post admitting that the Obama administration launched a spying operation against Trump’s campaign, everyone involved appears to be panicking and trying to get out in front of what DoJ IG Michael Horowitz’s report will reveal, “to save their reputations.”

“But it is backfiring,” he notes.

Knock Comey Out

Instead of implicating Trump and his associates for actions directly related to the 2016 campaign and political subterfuge committed in concert with Moscow, more Americans are learning by the day that Mueller’s probe is based on a lie built on falsehoods all wrapped in fictitious allegations.

And as such, “this process must now be stopped, preferably long before a vote in the Senate,” he writes. “Rather than a fair, limited and impartial investigation, the Mueller investigation became a partisan, open-ended inquisition that, by its precedent, is a threat to all those who ever want to participate in a national campaign or an administration again.”

Despite the false premises upon which the investigation is based, Penn acknowledges that it won’t be easy for Trump to simply end it. So he’ll have to essentially render it moot.

“Step one here is for the Justice Department inspector general report to knock Comey out of the witness box. Next, the full origins of the investigation and its lack of any real intelligence needs to come out in the open,” Penn writes.

“The president’s lawyers need to extend their new aggressiveness from words to action, filing complaints with Justice Department’s Office of Professional Responsibility on the failure of Mueller and Rosenstein to recuse themselves, and going into court to question the tactics of the special counsel” for a variety of reasons he adds.

Penn also believes Trump himself could prove to be the “final stopper” — agreeing to a televised two-hour session whereby he provides Mueller with testimony.

Stopping the probe “isn’t about one president or one party,” it’s about “cleaning out and reforming the deep state so that our intelligence operations are never used against opposing campaigns without the firmest of evidence,” Penn notes.
